Description
I did something new - for me anyway. This is an image composed almost totally in GIMP. When I saw Angie's (Rachel Marie) PNG sets it made me want to try it. I did V4 in Poser (Mihrelle's Aeryn texture on the base V4) against the gray background and exported the image to GIMP. Regina's Advent9 BG looked like a nice base so I brought it in as a layer and shoved it to the back. I figured out how to scale and move Angie's png's and went crazy. I even threw in a few butterfly brushes. I upped the brightness and contrast on the finished image and this is the result. Not too bad for an evening's work by an old goat. It will never make it to the Louvre but I'm happy with it.

A fine image GT, it shows that you had fun putting it together, well done!
Amazing result . I've heard a lot of people are using Gimp and based on your results it seems a program worth looking into .
Nicely done. It's always fun to experiment with new ideas and techniques.
Fantastic image and work in GIMP. Very well done on this first for you, guess there will be more done this way in the future.
Beautiful scene and work*********
This magician also has new tricks : not even sleeves to hide the birds. Very nicely done
Beautiful image and composition, Teri. Nice GIMP work for sure. You did great. The biggest challenge about 2d images is... That one have to do light and shadows, manually(by hand). And that is a lot of handmade stuff, when it comes to complex scenes.
Nice springing scene!
Nicely done romantic scene .. only Im little mising shadows behind scene objects, despite this great work!
beautiful scene and pose
LOL on your commentary Teri...one thing I leant long ago: never under estimate the cunning of an old goat......it is because of that they were able to make it to old goat status!!. A great looking render, and a lot of fun in the making by the sound if it!
Lovely! ")
Хорошая работа!
Beautiful scene!
For a first try, you did a sensational job on this, Terri! It's a wonderful composite! I really love compositing a number of different elements together like this. I use Photoshop, but clearly Gimp is a very impressive and capable bit of software - and you can't beat the price! Hope to see more!
wonderful scene and magical
What a great scene and art you proposed to us all Very nice again Smiles in your heart ((5++))
Marvelous creation composition... Outstandingly done !!!
Love the mixed medium techniques and kudos for always keeping the work fresh!
Very nice and good for Spring!! :) It's always good to experiment!
Beautiful & dreamy image, great job as always my friend!!
Wonderful work!
Very nice work. The light fits perfect. Why not in the Louvre. If there is an exhibition of Digital Art, I agree for this!
Sorry, I'm late to tell you how charming this creation is.
Be going to know where would be those of the Louvre if Poser and Gimp had existed in their time ! For a first try "using" layers and different backdrops, Teri, here it is ! Hope you've gor lot of fun to lurn lol :-D
